This has probably been said in previous pages but are measurements adjustable for MTO when it goes live? Or is it like you pick a stock size for say the Neo V3 cut and you pick your fabric?

May be a bit late on the T-shirt discussion, but what have folks thought of them? Personally, I think the fit is perfect for an undershirt, and the quality/price ratio is awesome (duh), but if I had one point of feedback it would be to request the V-neck go a bit deeper V. As it stands, I'm seeing a good 1-2 inches of undershirt with just the top button undone on most of my dress-shirts. I much prefer no undershirt visibility, but it does look nice on its own or under an open shirt (basically when not trying to keep it hidden, which for me equates to all the colors besides white and grey).

For a bit more current topic, I went in hard on that final suit sale on Sunday night. Picked up:
- Guabello Light Grey Texture, Brown Texture, Blue Texture, and Blue Check (looks like a nice subtle Windowpane)
- Drago Blue Check (looks more of a blue POW)
- VBC "Brown" Fresco

Intrigued by the different Guabello "texture" suits. The light grey in particular looks pretty unique.

It will be MTM not MTO IIRC. You'll be able to pick fabric and measurements using a base OTR size.

Ok who snagged the last blue pin texture in 42L?!

Are you admitting you let it sit there until it was gobbled up? Now what are you gonna wear to the blue pin texture party?

Exactly—that’s why it’s still only done in person. They want those measurements precise.

Had to wait until my 42L sportcoats came in from the last sale to confirm my size - bought 42R in the past. Snooze I loose, no texture party for me

My brother-in-law ordered this one. It's at the tailor now and he calls me every morning to commiserate over their lack of urgency to finish his work.

S&M hype is real.
Even off SF.

He got 40R and he's had it a few weeks. Don't sweat it!

Custom suiting is still in store only.

The custom page is up if you search custom. Does it not work if you try to pay?

That’s crazy, but you’re right. It likely doesn’t work yet; people have stumbled on the site in progress a few times, but @spiermackay reminds us to be patient. He’ll announce when it’s ready to roll.

Sure, but it probably won't be for a couple of weeks at least. Anybody know what season that one is from? The patch pockets sold it for me as I'll probably get enough use out of the jacket with some light chinos to justify the cost. I'm not sure how often I'll feel the need to wear the whole suit.

I didn't think there were supposed to be worn as undershirts, but I guess to each his/her/their own.
